New Year's Resolution - Grade - F

My intention was to appreciate not just the easy stuff like pretty sunrises, but to appreciate all my world, including the power of the weather. Well, BLAH! I am failing Weather Appreciation 101! We've had snow on the ground forever! It is finally leaving, and do you know why it's leaving??? Because we are having 2 days of non-stop howling, shreeking wind! We've been between 30-35 mph all night and all day, with gusts over 50 mph. Tomorrow? More of the same! Enough already!

The good news? After 5 days of hoof soaking, bandaging and medicating Paj with SMZs, the shoe went back on, and he's all better. Yay. The other good news? February is almost outa here!

Next year's resolution? To appreciate the easy stuff like puppies and flowers and sunshine!

Yes. Hooray for cute fuzzy things!The wind pulled the top of the stall door out of my hand and slammed it against the wall of the barn. The hardware put a hole in the metal barn.. not a big one.. but it is still a hole!The wind also pushed the tonneau cover on the bed of the truck up....5 times. One of my friends suggested I weigh myself down with bags of sugar for the horses on my way to the barn. You may want to consider the same thing!Stay warm. I do think the 'wind tousled' look is kinda cute!

Oh! I like puppies, flowers, and sunshine too! Wind...not so much. It's awful here too. I feel sorry for the birds. How can they fly in this? They sure can't eat; my bird feeder is somewhere in my pasture now.
